Homepage

The homepage of your trade portal is fully customisable to feature any text you require, as well as more complicated HTML to allow image placement and tables which could feature anything from opening times to latest offers.

Purchase orders

Purchase orders

Allowing your customers to place orders through your portal couldn’t be easier. They have the option to search for required parts by manually entering vehicle details, or they can simply type in the registration plate of a vehicle and let the VRM lookup do the rest. Customers can add as many products as they wish to an order before clicking ‘Checkout’ to finalise. Once the order is complete, users can access the order via the ‘My Orders’ tab if they wish to repeat the order at a later date.

Invoices

By using the easy to navigate tabs on the menu featured at the top of your portal, your trade customers can gain access to a variety of features that can enhance the customer experience. By clicking ‘My Invoices’, users can view a full list of their previous and current invoices ordered by date (latest to oldest). From this screen, users can also drill down to view the full details of individual invoices and reprint as required. This includes information on product codes and descriptions, price before and including VAT and total expenditure per invoice.

Payments

Payments

Similar to ‘My Invoices’, the ‘My Payments’ tab allows your customers to view a complete and thorough list of their past payments, arranged in a clearly presented table in chronological order. This screen also allows users to view their Credit Limit, Available Credit, Total Balance as well as balances in past periods. Each listed payment is listed with their reference number so that your customers can make simple enquiries should they wish to.

Previous orders

The ‘My Orders’ tab not only allows customers to view a complete list of previous orders, it also allows them to reload a new basket with repeat orders. This makes the order more efficient for customers wishing to restock the same number of products on an ongoing basis. This screen also allows users to drill down into each previous order to view its full details, including products per order, total price and any included discounts.

Personal account

Personal account

The ‘My Account’ tab gives your customer the opportunity to sign up to your optional newsletters, which can be utilised to keep in contact, promote your latest products and promotions, and send details of any competitions. This gives you an economical way to enhance customer service and generate revenue through the use of direct, efficient marketing.

Downloadable documentation

You can allow your customers to download any document you wish, whether this is product or company information, legal documentation or promotional material. This allows you to reduce the amount you spend on printing and postage for customer-facing documents, and gives your customers a simple way of gathering information about your business.
